[pct-l] Recipe for vegan, raw, gluten-free "crackers"

[Diane at Santa Barbara Hikes dot com]

I got this recipe the other day from Lenny's mom. Lenny hiked the PCT  
last year. Lenny's mom made these crackers and brought them to a  
gathering the other night. Everybody raved. Here's what I remember:

- Soak a bunch of raw seeds overnight. Sesame, pepitas (green pumpkin  
seeds), sunflower, whatever kinds you like. You soak them to get them  
to germinate which makes them more digestible.

- Separately soak some raw flax seeds.

- Pour out the water from the seeds. The flax seeds will be all  
gelatinous and you probably can't pour much or any water out. That  
gelatinous stuff is what makes the crackers stick together. Mix the  
flax seeds and the rest of the seeds.

- Add something for flavor. Lenny's mom added "soup mix" whatever  
that is. Maybe soy sauce or salt and spices? Whatever sounds good.

- Spread the mixture on a surface that it won't stick to like  
parchment paper or maybe foil. It looked like hers was about 1/4 inch  
thick.

- Put it in your dehydrator or put it in the oven on the lowest setting.

I don't remember how long it takes to dry, but you can tell it's dry  
when it's crispy.

I remember her sending these to Lenny on the trail. I think sometimes  
she put dried kale in it. Or maybe I'm just remembering the "kale  
chips" she'd send him.
